Denial of Service Detection and Mitigation on GENI

Description

The goal of this video is to demonstrate how you can use GENI for cybersecurity research and education projects. First a simple TCP SYN flood attack is demonstrated and Wireshark is used to visualize the surge of traffic. Then, an Intrusion Detection System (IDS), snort, is used to write a simple rule to detect the attack. Finally, SDN flow tables are sent drop/redirect rules to mitigate the attack. These labs were created for the project "CyberPaths" that aims to introduce cybersecurity education in liberal arts colleges using GENI.
